MoneyMate Sets Up Shop in Beantown


MoneyMate, a Dublin, Ireland-based purveyor of investment data management solutions, has opened an office in the epicenter of the U.S. mutual fund industry. Heading up the Boston office on Federal Street is State Street alum Stephen Kraunelis, who joined MoneyMate as senior vice president of North American sales.

This is MoneyMate's second office in North America. The company, whose clients include JPMorgan Asset Management, earlier opened an office in New York. It also has a presence in London, Milan and Stockholm.

Kraunelis is focusing on the 50 largest asset managers in North America.

Prior to joining MoneyMate in early January, Kraunelis worked at Publishing Data Management as senior vice president of global sales. Previously, he was a senior account executive for GComsquared Solutions and a senior sales manager at FT Interactive Data.

"We are seeing real changes in the market in North America, particularly with the imposition of regulatory controls around data quality management," said MoneyMate CEO Paul Fawsitt in a press release.
